Mecum Auctions concludes its 2017 auction schedule this coming weekend with a three-day sale in the Kansas City (Missouri) Convention Center, where around 700 vehicles are expected to cross the block.
Mecum has been staging twice-a-year auctions in KC for more than 25 years. In March, it sold more than 300 vehicles at an auction that generated $7.3 million in sales. Its November/December sale in 2016 did more than $8 million with 357 vehicles going to new owners.
Topping the docket for the auction this weekend is a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 RS that has undergone a professional rotisserie restoration with a 302cid V8 engine from Precision Engines.
Other highlights include a 1939 Ford Model A Shell tanker, a 1957 Ford Thunderbird and a 2005 Ford GT, the auction house said in its news release.
The auction will be televised by NBC Sports Network from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday, from 2:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Friday, from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, and from 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday (all times are for the Central zone).
I get an e-mail nearly every day. Today when I want to check in to see if my relatives are sitting in the front row, no e-mail. And I can’t find out how to get to the auction from the website. By the way, I have always had difficulty finding the auction from the website. Could be more user friendly.
